Beijing is served primarily by Beijing Capital International (PEK) and the newer Beijing Daxing International (PKX). Capital, the long-established international hub north of the city, typically hosts legacy carriers and many international connections; it can feel busier and slightly pricier for services. Daxing, built to relieve capacity, usually handles a mix of full-service and low-cost airlines with growing international routes and often competitive fares. Both airports are about 25–50 km from downtown depending on which terminal you use: Capital is roughly 30 km northeast and Daxing about 45 km to the south. Main options include the Airport Express metro and high-speed intercity rail (20–35 minutes to central stations by express services), airport shuttle buses and licensed taxis (30–70 minutes; fares vary with distance and time of day), plus ride-hailing. Pros: frequent flights and extensive route networks. Cons: long transfer times in heavy traffic and potentially lengthy security and immigration queues during peak periods.

Fly direct from Beijing to Ulan-Ude for the fastest, most convenient way to cross from China into the heart of Buryatia — fewer hassles, no long layovers, and more time to enjoy your destination. While some connecting options can be cheaper, a nonstop flight saves hours and offers a more comfortable journey, making it a smart choice for business trips and short getaways alike.

Located about 11–15 km northeast of the city center, transfer options include taxis (roughly 20–35 minutes, fares usually in the mid-range for the city), local buses and shuttle vans that can take nearer to 30–45 minutes for a low cost. Pros: compact terminal and generally straightforward check-in; cons: fewer direct international routes and limited late-night services compared with major hubs.
